Just yesterday, Deviantart posted a puff piece to promote the idea of selling art on deviantart, promoting their “top seller,” who, wouldn’t you know it, posts exclusively AI art.

Deviantart is not a site for artists anymore and hasn’t been for a long while. This official promotion of AI artists is the latest slap in the face.

I’m considering pulling amourim off deviantart again in response to this, and shifting focus to moving the ML at any cost.

Also, if you’ve been feeling lost without a home for your art since 2020 brought the release of Eclipse, consider sheezy.art 

It’s a site I’m genuinely in love with after just a few short days of using it. The community is lovely as is the site itself. I’m on there as CHELRY. It’s in beta- it’s not perfect, but it’s still in a far, far better state than deviantart has ever been since eclipse.
